Hi guys, i bought a three year old dogo argentino catchdog but are struggling to introduce him to my pack. My old bluetick male dog who was the alpha male was quickly shown whose the boss but my american bulldog male dog isnt scared of him! Was wondering if i can shock them to make them behave?
The first problem I see here in my opinion is there should not be an Alpha dog, there should only be one Alpha and that is you. Now it sounds like the dogo has already mixed it up with one of your pack, once they start it can sure be tough to break them, but not impossible. Shocking is not my preferred method of fixing this, though I have heard it can work but only with impeccable timing which means you would have to really understand body and behavior patterns. I like a more hands on approach, but to be honest these days if it takes much work to curb dog aggression that dog is gone plain and simple I just don't have the time or patience for it anymore.
This is just my own opinion, good luck.
